Thank you to all of you who answered our survey last year, of the Photographic History Research Centre's digital resources for photographic history. The time you took to answer our survey has been invaluable in assessing the range of users and research on these sites. It has also been gratifying to hear your messages of thanks, which have been passed on to those who originally created them.
I'm pleased to announce that we will be undertaking a security upgrade to safeguard the following sites for the future (in no particular order):
http://fentonletterbooks.dmu.ac.uk/
http://foxtalbot.dmu.ac.uk/
http://peib.dmu.ac.uk/
DMU is committed to open access research, and the IT department (ITMS) is supporting PHRC's mission to make open research resources for photographic history. In the coming months there may be some disruption to the websites that you normally use. We hope that these interruptions will be short, and will not inconvenience you greatly. However, in the knowledge that there will be some inevitable down time, I would encourage all researchers who have time-sensitive projects not to delay any use they need to make of these sites. Work will begin very soon.
Again, Many thanks for all your efforts.
Kelley Wilder
